Nick Newell Recalls Justin Gaethje's Relentless Pressure, Compares Him to Du Plessis

Nick Newell, who faced Justin Gaethje in a 2014 WSOF title fight, describes Gaethje as nearly impossible to stop, saying the only way to derail him is a knockout. Newell noted that despite audibly struggling with fatigue during their bout, Gaethje never changed his output, power, or forward pressure. Newell says Gaethje and Dricus Du Plessis are the only two fighters he has witnessed who maintain that same level regardless of how tired they become.
